Before.....

Mike has been working his tail off the last two weekends getting fencing ripped out and moved and rebuilt. Our nephew, Trent, came up last weekend and helped him and Payton. This past weekend Mike had plenty of help from Payton, Cael and Nate. Nate took more of a supervisor roll than anything else. I even went over on Saturday afternoon to help pound posts. Mike had to work overtime on Saturday morning, so the boys and I tore out the fence at our house. We only have to pull up the wooden posts and it is done. Mike and I went to the bank last night and signed papers for the construction loan. They are supposed to start digging this week. The house is scheduled to come off the line on June 10. So things are moving. Not fast enough for me but they are progressing. I have taken some before pictures and will get them posted. The land looks different without the fence there! We have started to pack boxes. A little at a time. I have tried to do some things in the boys' rooms but they flip out and think I am getting rid of it instead of just packing it away to move!! 

On a sad note. We had to say goodbye to our cat, Fluffy, 2 weeks ago. We are not sure what happened but think he got into some poison somewhere. Mike had to put him down. The boys are saddened by this and I have found myself looking for him and then remember he is gone. We will not be replacing him anytime soon. I am hoping that I can convince all of them that we don't need any inside pets. I have enough animals in the house with Mike and the boys there!! Maybe a puppy outside but that is down the road.
